We have a new dyelot of “Fruity and Juicy” cotton silk ikat fabric which is available at this link:. This multicolor cotton silk blend ikat was hand dyed and handloom woven in Margilan, Uzbekistan . This is a perfect ikat pattern for projects where you need to add a pinch of fresh and vibrant colors.
Differences with an old dyelot
New dyelot has a mat antiqued finish and is 4 cm (1.8″) wider. This ikat dyelot has a beautiful moire pattern.
We still have some remaining fabric from the 1st dyelot of “Fruity and Juicy” as follows:
- Fruity and Juicy dyelot 1 – here we have only 2 meters left
- Fruity and Juicy dyelot 1 widened by us – this is a widened fabric with matched ikat pattern.
As always, these fabrics are handloom woven of approximately 50% silk and 50% cotton yarn.
Interesting fact about this ikat fabric
British designer Kit Kemp designs vibrant and eclectic interiors. She is also a master of creating unique hotel experiences. It seems like Kit Kemp has a particular liking for ikats, especially for using them in lampshades.
